Quality of life, exercise capacity, cognition, and mental health of Chilean patients after COVID-19: an experience of a multidisciplinary rehabilitation program at a physical and rehabilitation medicine unit
Post-COVID disabilities, encompassing physical, cognitive, and psychological aspects, constitute the primary health sequelae for survivors. While the rehabilitation needs post COVID-19 are now well understood, each country possesses unique characteristics in terms of populations, healthcare systems, social dynamics, and economic profiles, necessitating context-specific recommendations. This study aims to address two main objectives: (1) analyze the impact of an 8-week multidisciplinary rehabilitation program on the quality of life, functional capacity, cognition, and mental health adaptations in adults recovering from COVID-19 in northern Chile, and (2) propose a personalized model for predicting program dropouts and responses.A total of 44 subjects were enrolled, forming two groups during the study: a treatment group (n = 32) and a dropout group (n = 12). The treatment group participated in the 8-week multidisciplinary rehabilitation program.The results indicate that (1) After 8 weeks, the quality of life of the patients in the treatment group exhibited significant improvements reflected in all aspects of the Short Form-36 Health Survey (SF36, p < 0.005) and the total score (p < 0.001), with a concurrent decrease in dysfunctionality (p < 0.001).
